This #SundayMorning , let's check in on Jared Kushner. Between Pruitt and Cohen and Trump's endless Twitter tantrums, we haven't spared much of a thought for the guy.

How are things going for Kush?
SPOILER ALERT: Pretty bad.
(THREAD)
(2) Kushner's hanging on in the White House, but rumor has it Daddy dearest has been trying to push him out. As the Mueller investigation continues to look into Kushner family finances, Trump has become increasingly hostile toward him.

(3) Just a few days ago, Kushner's family was issued a subpoena for information concerning reports they had consistently falsified paperwork to hide hundreds of rent-regulated buildings while Kush ran the company.

Crime: Misdemeanor, fine up to $25,000

(4) Brooklyn federal prosecutors and the SEC are separately considering charges regarding Kushner's use of EB-5 visa investments to secure funding from Chinese investors.

Crime: Federal crime, up to 5 years in jail, fines of $5 million

(5) There appears to be some interest as well in Jared and Ivanka having three separate unsecured lines of credit in Deutsche Bank, Signature Bank and New York Community Bank ranging from $5-25 million dollars.

Crime: unclear

(6) Beyond investigations for state & federal crimes looms 666 Fifth Ave. Facing steep loses on the property, Mueller is looking at ways in which Kushner used his White House influence to shop financing with Qatar, Russia, China & Turkey.

Crime: unclear

(7) Jared is also personally tangled up in much of the TrumpRussia investigation, including the Trump Tower meeting, the campaign's digital operations, his incomplete security clearance forms, Flynn's resignation, and Comey's firing.

Crime: unclear

(8) There's lots hanging over Kushner's head and there's no telling when the next shoe will drop. All investigations are ongoing and no charges have been filed. But even if Kushner escapes Mueller's probe, there appear to be state charges waiting for him.

Tonight, you’ll hear Trump address the nation about his immigration crisis.
Despite his lies, Trump is right about one thing.

We do have a crisis on our border.
A humanitarian crisis involving the mass incarceration of families seeking asylum.
#BoycottTrumpPrimeTime

(THREAD)
(2) First, let’s address Trump’s manufactured crisis.

In 2017, immigrants entering illegally at the southern border hit their lowest level in 46 years.

America’s current immigration rate is net zero since more people leave than currently enter.

washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2…
(3) In fact, recent government data confirms that most of the illegal immigration that occurs in this country doesn’t come across the Mexican border at all, but from those overstaying their visas.

This #SundayMorning Trump has reiterated his threats to declare a national emergency and bypass Congress to build his border wall.

Can Trump abuse his executive powers in this way and what, if anything, can be done to stop him?

#SundayThoughts #SundayMotivation
(THREAD)
(2) First off, there are not a lot of rules about declaring national emergencies. And sadly, even in America, this executive power is rarely checked by Congress.

It's a tactic that has been used by both authoritarians and democracies around the world.
washingtonpost.com/world/2019/01/…
(3) While Trump can declare a national emergency at his discretion, he can't invoke one indefinitely without Congressional approval. And there are some limits to how this authority can be used to deploy troops & use funding.

I was out for a walk this afternoon in my neighborhood, tromping through half ploughed icy sidewalks when something happened that happens way way too often.

A red pickup truck with a big engine pulled up alongside of me.

(THREAD)
(2) At first I didn’t think much of it, but I did look up and glare at the driver. As a woman walking alone, even in the middle of the day, I am hyper aware of my surroundings.

I feel uncomfortable wearing headphones to listen to music when in public for exactly this reason.
(3) The driver was a young to middle aged white male and his truck was loud. He coasted along beside me for nearly half a block before stopping.

I was annoyed but shrugged it off. Maybe he wasn’t sure where he was going and was trying to get a closer look at the house numbers.

Trump’s Nationalism Rebuked at World War I Commemoration
#SundayMorning #Nationalism #WWI100

2/"President Trump’s brand of “America First” nationalism was repudiated on Sunday as leaders from around the globe gathered to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the armistice that ended World War I and reaffirm the international bonds that have once again come under strain.
3/"Stone-faced and unmoved, the American leader listened as President Emmanuel Macron of France used the ceremony at the Arc de Triomphe to denounce self-interested nationalism and extol the sort of globalism and international institutions that Mr. Trump has spent the last two

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
